Hi,
as the thread No GUI access but SSH access works was set to "Solved" from the initiatior i have to open another thread because my topic is not solved ;-)

Summary:
I can logon my PVE using putty, but i can not login my PVE using WebGUI.

my issue is, that I get a loginscreen and when i try to login the webGUI - see screenshot
I was able to login via webGUI for about 2 months
Suddenly i can not login anymore.
A Reboot of PVE did not solve the issue

Like suggeested form @bbgeek17 in the other thread i did:

my machine is called "pve2024", as I understand I use "pve" to authenticate

created a user like:
root@pve2024:~# pveum user add admin@pve
root@pve2024:~# pveum passwd admin@pve
which worked

but login still does not work :-(
 
update:
Yesterday I logged on on the console and tried a "qm list", this command is still 'running' and there is no output.
 
You should review #15 in the other thread and follow the tasks listed there

good luck

Have you rebooted and examined the "journalctl -b0" line by line for any errors?
I will do a fresh reboot as soon I get a downtime tomorrow morning.
